Authentication in AD and in the database

Feb 17th, 2013, 09:14 PM

Hi to all,

This is my frist topic, I'm guessing the spring security fantastic and very complete.

I have a question what would be the best way to implement the following scenario:

1) To log into the application the system will check the user name and password in Active Directory, if the username and password are correct the system should search the database permissions registered for this user

The name of the user in AD will be the same as the user name in the database.
